Saga #01 - The Outbreak

Quest For Immortality: Chapter #01 - Naruto Uzumaki: Insane Genius

"Immortality! Immortality! Immortality! Immortality! Immortality! I want it!"

Takashi Komuro, a second year student at Fujimi Academy was cutting class and presently outside on his schools roof. His spiky black hair and brown eyes were looking at the man who was currently trying to destroy the metal fence that stood as a gateway to school.

"Who the hell is that?" he thought and continued to observe the scene. The man didn't seem right. He could tell that from here, yet the teacher's who came out to confront the deranged man didn't seem to notice.

A female teacher with red hair known to him as Hayashi-sensei approached while yelling, "Who the hell do you think you are!? Stop making those horrid noises. You're disturbing the school, the poor students are being distracted because of you."

Even after Hayashi told the man to stop, he didn't. He hadn't even acknowledged the woman. One of the teachers, whose name was Tejima, was a large man who couldn't help but be pissed off at this transgressor's lack of respect.

Tejima rolled his sleeves up as he walked near the fence and passed his hand through a big enough space so he could grab the unresponsive man by his buttoned shirt. He pulled with enough force to make him hit the fence face first which cut his lip dispelling blood.

"Tejima-sensei, please don't be violent. This is a school and that's not what we teach our student. Let's talk about this" Hayashi, the scarlet-haired teacher scolded with a stern anger in her tone. Tejima looked at her and scratched his head sheepishly before replying, "Gomen gomen."

"But this disrespectful bastard shoulda answer-..." before the phys ed teacher could complete his explanation, the crazy man bit him in the arm; causing him to scream in pain and fall on the ground.

"Te...Tejima?" Another teacher said as they all looked at their friend with panic in their eyes. They watched helplessly as blood pooled from the man's wound as he lie there in the gravel.

"Tejima-sensei's... de-dead?" The scarlet-haired teacher was the most shocked out of the observing teachers since she had been dating the man in private. Tears started coming out of her eyes and she fell onto the ground with a sad look on her face. She'd never seen someone die before. Not even so much as a family funeral.

All hope for Tejima was gone until one of the hysteric teachers noticed his hands moving slightly.

"It-it seems like he's ali-alive after all."

Hayashi was again shocked and spoke to the bleeding teacher; "Thank goodness. Are you- Are you okay?"

The man replied by opening his darkened eyes, which made his once hopeful wife to-be grin with relief. Her smile soon faded when Tejima lunged forward and grabbed her by the breasts, shoving her to the ground. Almost in the same motion, he bit off a chunk of her neck causing blood to spurt out. It splattered sparingly onto the metal gate but mostly found its way onto the observing faculty.

"AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!" The redheaded teacher helplessly scream, her agony was piercing and her pain, felt by everyone as Tejima continued to bite her. One of the male teacher took the initiative and kicked Tejima to a side before running to Hayashi's aid.

"Are you okay Hayashi-sensei?" The male teacher asked desperately. Before he could react, he was bit as well but this time, the assailant was Hayashi herself. He put his arm up to defend him but she savagely ripped into his arm like a feral beast.

He tried to push her off but to no avail. She was now on top of the much larger man, overpowering him as she continued her 'meal'. While all of this was happening, Takashi Komura had been watching from the school roof. His face was morphed into a mixture of fear, shock, and disgust. This brunette protagonist-looking-guy didn't waste a second as he began running towards his class at maximum speed.

"What the hell is happening out there? I know for sure Tejima-sensei died when he was bitten but... afterwards... it's like he somehow came back to life or something. He's dead and alive?"

He burst into the building and maneuvered down the steps and into a hallway. "That's not possible. Right? But the same thing happened with Hayashi-sensei! Holy shit, I need to warn Rei and the others about this!"

In The High School Library :

"I want it! I want it! I want it! I want to become immortal! I never wanna die! I won't die! Hahahahahahahaha! There must be a way to become immortal and live forever! And if there's a way, I'll find it! Believe it!" Naruto Uzumaki was a blond-haired, highschool student with a slim yet muscular body. His icy-blue eyes were cold like a glacier's crust; his calculating eyes and most strangely, his three cat-like whisker marks on each of his cheek were what people noticed first.

He was pouring through books, as he often did with his spare time. This time was his and he flowed along his war path with effervescent poise. Being on his own helped, "It's what I'm used to" his mind shouted quickly.

"Well logically, the most efficient way is on my own. No one to slow me down; no one to limit my research. There can be only one goal. By how to get there. From mortality to the immortal!? Show me the way" he thought, flipping through pages of stories and legend.

The blond was known as the "Insane Genius" at school. Not a name he'd pick had they asked him but who does that with something that sticks. And it fits, Naruto supposed. He would never attend a single class yet somehow, he'd still get perfect scores on every exam he took. The boy was a genius no doubt and that is where the "genius" from his epithet came from. This was the obvious part of the title and most likely the glue that made it stick.

"Sure that's why" he mocked. He never bothered to fix their egregious miscalculation. Naruto Uzumaki had wished for only one thing since the beginning of his days and that was immortality. He would always go into the library and read all the books containing ancient history on the premise. He'd read promising tales again and again, hoping to see if someone in the past had actually done it. Could someone have already finished the quest he now so desperately chased?

Though he had much mental capacity and strength, he lacked physical power. He lacked it though he was the only one who thought he lacked power. The blond was top in the state in the 400m dash and the only reason we placed in regionals for boxing. "All strategy and superior genes. Potential for transcendence!" he waved off not thinking anything of it.

But to him, human standards were not enough. Mortality was too limited, too weak. He was never satisfied, although it seemed to everyone that he had everything. Except for a few marbles wich he was obviously missing.

Naruto, even in his self imposed isolation, was still the most popular student in the Academy. He was certainly the most infamous, especially after his mechanically dead/alive frog exploded from electrical charges during last years science fair. Unfortunate for Kermit, yes but Naruto found him dead to begin with.

"Got his road-killed sorry ass to hop around a few more times" he thought defending his failure with gratification. "That was a promising prospect too. What a gruesome shame, failed potential. But such is mortality" he laughed morbidly. He cracked a smirk as he thought back to the light show he caused which resulted in three students at the counselor's office. None of which were him.

Still, for a reason he could only attribute to his own amazingness, many girls at the school were his fans or secretly vyed for his attention. Even with his obsessions, the blond was still very good looking and knew how to manipulate with words. He mouth was a motor that was always going, yet he never spoke to anyone specifically unless he was spoken to. This mystery made his classmates sway with gossip.

"Hot, gorgeous, hunky, and handsome" were often thrown around by the girls in the hallways. And his whiskers, which were a natural birthmark, kind of made him like a cute pet. So says the whispers that he pretends not to hear.

While he was a genius and an obsessed dreamer, he was also a great listener and problem solver. The blond had a really good personality according to those he'd helped.

"Listening is one of my many deadly weapons. Information is power" he thought. His eyes skimmed through a few more pages before opening a web browser. "If they naively confided in me, why shouldn't I get something to compensate for the agony of listening."

He made his own fun, doing things he enjoyed and only things he enjoyed. If someone benefited as a result, no hair off his head. Because of this selective interest, he'd become bored often. Still, he was very good at deceiving people into thinking that he was listening, though often times, his thoughts were wandering.

He told his history teacher that when she yelled at him for daydreaming. "Who needs this juvenile class. I'll see you the day of the test" he told her before he stopped coming to her class. It was the first day.

Currently Naruto was studying, as he mostly was, about the one thing that tormented his soul. He was searching for immortality. The blond's eyes were locked onto the laptop in his lap as he read through blogs and sites like wikipedia at lightning speeds... he could not fail.

"I know it. I just know it... I can do it, immortality is achievable and I will achieve it no matter what. I can't fail" the blond thought with a serious expression while reading blog after report after claim.

The rate that he was opening new tabs was just... insane, Two girls were sitting behind him and couldn't help but look at the infamous student every other second. They oggled him and whispered compliments.

"The stories are true. He's amazing, look at him. So determined" they thought.

With Takashi :

"That's it! Finally!" The blackette sighed. His relief was liberating, and when he arrived, he pushed into the classroom without hesitation. The teacher, who was still teaching the students, sighed with a pissed-off look and yelled, "WHERE WERE YOU?! FIRST YOU SKIP MY CLASS AND NOW YOU INTERRUPT THESE GOOD STUDENT'S STUDIES!?" Takashi hated this teacher, and her anally strict class. So he didn't listen to the scolding that he was receiving from his teacher.

His eyes met a desk that he spent much time looking at. His eyes knew the path to it by heart, and his legs followed. He walked by everyone before stopping front of a desk in the back, one that belonged to the girl he loved, Rei Miyamoto.

Rei had long orang-ish-auburn hair with bangs. Two rouge bangs were sticking up above the rest of her hair. She had reddish-brown eyes which Takashi looked into with a very serious look. She was looking on blushing, embarrassed by his scene in class.

"Rei!" he yelled. "We need to leave, now. Come with me!" She couldn't help but be pissed off at his antics. Nothing about this was funny to her nor the teacher clearly. She was studying next to her new boyfriend no less and, "OMG, he's staring like everyone else" she thought. Hisashi Igou, the boy of her thoughts, watched quietly. Eagerly, Rei stood from her seat and replied with fire. "I don't want to! AND LEAVE ME! Can't you see I'm where I'm supposed to be. I'm studying!" He was definitely pissed off by the way she had replied... This wasn't a good sign. Seeing his girlfriend's reaction, Hisashi stood up facing the pair and spoke to Takashi. "What's going on Takashi?"

The blackette turned his head and glanced at Hisashi as he replied with a rather faint voice, "Someone got killed at the front gate and all the teaches there... are now fighting each other. This is a real-serious and dangerous problem. We need to leave here as soon as possible."

The gray-haired man sighed before again asking "You sure?"

Takashi couldn't help but raise his voice at that. "We don't have time Hisashi, this is a serious problem! PEOPLE GOT KILLED! We need to leave right now!" The brunette screamed. At first the students paid attention to what he was saying but then... they just shrugged it off and looked back at their teacher who was currently observing this trio with a rage that turned her face purple. Rei then suddenly got angrier and pushed Takashi away from her while yelling at him "What is with you and your crazy thoughts?! Why can't you just leave me alo-..." Rei couldn't complete her sentence because she was looking at Takashi's hand. The blackette had lost control over his anger and had proceeded to slap Rei but right at that moment Hisashi had stopped it.

"Let's go!" The gray-haired boy said making Rei blush a bit embarrassed while Takashi could only sigh. He shrugged his other thoughts away and nodded, turning around and past the boiling teacher with his love and her boyfriend. When the finally left, the teacher released a breath she didn't know she was holding.

"What is with students these days? Especially boys! First there is this Komuro who just skips classes as he pleases and then there is that Uzumaki brat who is always in the library. We can't do anything to him though because his scores brings this school so much funding." The teacher then sighed in relief before her tone turned resentful.

"Damn that disrespectful, Uzumaki br-..." she couldn't continue what she wanted to say when the woman received several glares from Naruto's "fan-girls." She sweat dropped as their devil-like glares bore into her soul, leaving her fearing for her jugular.

"Back to your studies" she croaked nervously. She loosened her neck tie to relieve some stress and swung her ruler on her desk for emphasis.

With Takashi's Group :

"Thank God, Hisashi stopped me there. I have no right to do that to Rei... I guess I was letting out the anger from when she dumped me" The brunette thought as he ran with Rei and her boyfriend. Takashi currently had a really guilty look on his face but right now wasn't the time so he decided focus his words.

Rei glanced at Takashi with a calm look. Seeing as they were already running, it was better if she knew what was going on "So what is happening Takashi?" She asked. Her voice was very low compared to before which meant normal, save for the hasty tone it took due to them running.

"I'm not sure if I'll be able to explain but I'll try..."

With Naruto :

"Ah... I'm tired. No real progress today either. That makes two hundred days." His thoughts trailed to a place far from his body, but he resolved himself with hast. "But I want it so I'll get it. So the only immortal beings known for now are... not humans. But some creatures like; vampires, werewolves, zomb-..." The blond couldn't complete his sentence because suddenly, all the speakers in the school declared a message.

"Every student! Please evacuate as soon as you can. Don't panic, but there has been some saftey problem in the school. Some man eating, dead looking creatures have attacked us. Leave as soon as you can with the help of your sensei. Don't pa- ARRRGGGHHHHHHHH-." The sound that was coming was very fine until it had turned into a scream of pain causing the speakers to hitch a very high pitch before... it went...dead. Every single student had a rather terrified look. Especially those in Rei's class, including the teacher who fainted.

What were these creatures?

The students all-over the school started panicking and even the teachers did as well. In just a couple of seconds... the whole library was empty. Naruto was still sitting in his seat though. He was looking at the blog he had been reading, as the mental image of the page was burned into memory. "Man-eating? Dead looking? Sounds like Zombies to me. Technically they are immortals... interesting!" As soon as this thought crossed the blond's mind, Naruto couldn't help but cackle and yell, "Immortality here I come!"
